It must have been awesome and horribly frightening at the same time.
What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."

I love how the big silver watches over all his babies makes sure they're all there, and that they're ok. It's just lovely to watch.

Incredible. But it did kinda look like the guy had pissed and shart himself by the time the camera got on him at 2:30, dinnit? :hehe:

LOL

I think the "keeping the head down/face down is instructions of what to do if you encounter one or a group of gorillas. Kind of like saying "Yea, I know you're the boss here, and I'm treding on your territory, please don't beat me to death". Not showing any kind of confrontation to them. I assume eye to eye contact shows confrontation.

Hmmm "men" just like all men! :sulk: :sulk:
